I always suspected C++ was about half as fast as C

But I never benched it. It just "felt" a lot slower than it ought to despite the fanatical devotion to efficient navel gazing of its proponents.

I wish they'd benched Squeak. I do know Squeak is about 10x faster than Ruby. Probably about as fast as Python seems to be (a little slower than VisualWorks).

Dynamic + low level seems like a good combo - (tonytib) - May 15, 2006, 12:02:34 PM EDT
